Great experience very personalized wiout a crowd of people. - Once we got connected with the guide it was excellent. We were the only couple and there are multiple beach signs and we were at the wrong one to start with. It was perfect since we were looking for a more personal experience without a lot of people. The snorkeling and kayak experience was great with a lot of local culture from the guide.

Best kayaking and snorkeling adventure in aruba - Amazing location, kayaking over beautiful ocean colors, we saw so many fish and coral in Mangel Halto and a sunken ship. Xander was so helpful, super cool dude and took us on an unforgettable adventure. Pick up and drop off from the hotel was easy, Jair is good people. Highly recommend!

Great way to start the day! Paddle and Snorkel - Xander was an outstanding guide. So personable and knowledgeable about his island and water. I loved every minute of this tour. Even with a bit of wind, it was a great paddle. Great snorkeling location and I was so glad to do this as a guided tour with all the great information instead of stumbling though on my own. Thanks, Xander!

Best kayaking in Aruba! - We really enjoyed our tour with JR and Alex! They picked us up at our resort and took us to Mangel Halto. We got lucky and had Alex all to ourselves for kayaking. The water was a little rough for snorkeling, but the life vests and flippers made it easy to stay afloat. We saw plenty of cool fish! After snorkeling, we kayaked over to the lagoon, which was a little calmer and then took a break before making the trip back to shore. Kayaking back was more difficult since we were paddling against the current and wind, but we were up to the challenge to get in a good upper body workout! Highly recommend this for anyone who loves kayaking! Thanks for a fun tour, JR and Alex!

Great guide but unpleasant experience - The best part of this experience was Alex, our guide! He was pleasant, friendly and helpful. If it wasn’t for Alex, I would have given this a 1-star rating for a couple of reasons. 1) The clear bottom kayak filled up with water while paddling so we were sitting in waist deep water while in kayak paddling. I think the kayaks should be upgraded as this was not pleasant. 2) The dry bag that was provided apparently had one or more holes as all of our phones and everything in the bag was soaked as the kayaks were filled with water where the dry bag was. I could not plug my phone in for 2 days afterwards as I kept getting the water in phone warning when I plugged it in. 3) We were supposed to snorkel in 2 locations according to the program but we only went to one. To be honest with the kayaks full of water, it wasn’t feasible to go to a second location. 4) The program says that drinking water and fruit were to be provided. We got nothing.

Expected more 😔 - We were disappointed with this experience. Our guide, Richard, was nice, but there was no 'guiding'. We waited over 30 minutes for the session to start, with no explanation provided (it turned out we were waiting for the kayaks to be delivered to the beach). Once we did make it onto the water, our guide simply accompanied us, mainly in silence, as we paddled along the shore and back. He said this was only his third session, so we assume he was still learning and finding his way, but we expected more. Once we returned to the beach, we declined the opportunity to take part in the snorkelling (as did the other people taking part) as we were on a tight schedule. With a more experienced guide, maybe we would have had a better time. But to be honest, it felt like we simply hired a kayak at a premium price.
